Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 slices Bread
- 1 ounce Cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Instructions
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil and 1/2 tablespoon of butter. Let the butter melt and swirl it to coat the pan.
Crack the eggs into a small bowl to ensure no shells are present. Gently slide the eggs into the skillet, keeping the yolks intact.
Sprinkle the eggs with 1/8 teaspoon each of salt and black pepper. Lower the heat slightly to prevent the whites from cooking too quickly while leaving the yolks runny.
While the eggs are cooking, heat another pan (or use a toaster) to lightly toast the 2 slices of bread to your desired crispness.
Spread the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of butter across one side of each slice of toasted bread.
Grate or slice 1 ounce of cheddar cheese and evenly distribute it over the tops of the bread slices.
Once the eggs have set whites but the yolks remain soft (about 3-4 minutes), carefully slide them onto the cheese-topped bread slices.
Optional: Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of freshly chopped parsley for garnish.
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy!
